Virtual Landing -- 1st May Photo and COPR delivered to IRCC Etobicoke -- 6th May 1st GU -- 27th Aug Approved and Dispatched -- 31st Aug

Under normal circumstances, any Canadian visa can be used for transit but not for repatriation flights. They clearly mention such visas as prohibited unless immediate family. Also, airline will only check in luggage all the way through for codeshare flights. Airlines within same network wont...

I'll avoid talking about qualifications, but I don't think IRCC is biased or preferring certain set of candidates. They are doing what is necessary to meet their annual numbers. When it comes to FSW, it is more challenging as they have to talk to foreign agencies and with lockdown, its hard to...

So in your opinion, you can save Canada's economy while CEC experience is worthless and they should go back to their home country for real experience? And what money are you coming with to help? Is it donations or charity or investments? Oh wait, may be you are talking about your settlement...

I'll vote for canadiandreamer to be the next immigration minister :p

HAHAHA..Its actually not a bad idea. If the person is willing to sponsor all of us, we can all move to Hawaii and retire :cool:

Lol, had to like your post before its taken down. I understand that the lack of fsw draws is making people frustrated, but there is way to vent it out. That member regularly blames high scoring candidates and I agree, the moderators should do something about it..

470+ or not, the express entry process is same for all, and every candidate goes through the same hassle. These 470+ candidates are not faking their documents or bribing their way in or taking advantage of some loophole that suits them. I really don't understand why you are so negative towards...

I went ahead with TD, only because of their US counterpart. Not sure about Tangerine but the big 5 have similar provisions. Also, I opened the account the very next day of my landing as a temp worker. I had initially provided my airbnb address. Later, after I got my own place, I updated my...

You can open bank account without SIN. I bank with TD and till date they don't have my SIN. Now usually for new immigrants, most banks issue credit card when you open checking account so that you can start building your credit history. So for that, yes, you need SIN. But if you are willing to...

Thanks.. For in person application, they don't ask for POA, also unlike DL, OHIP; they don't expect us to update the address linked with the SIN. If they were able to send the rejection mail, might as well send the SIN. Hopefully the next attempt will go through..

How long did it take them to respond? Were you notified via email or regular mail?

Yes you can. Check below website. https://help.cbp.gov/s/article/Article-1218?language=en_US

Usually the date of expiration on I94 for F1 is D/S which means date until I20 is valid. If you plan to travel by air, yes, post expiration of F1 visa, you will have to renew to enter. However, if you plan to enter by road, you only need to present your valid I20. They will run your SEVIS...

I sent IRCC webform on 1st asking for the next steps as IRCC offices are closed and appointments are not being made. The responded with confirmation of status and I sent them the COPR I received couple days back as per their instructions..

Guys, there is no point in arguing about diversity on the ray of hope thread. Canada is a beautiful and accepting country and people are responsible for making new immigrants feel like home. Given the comments and the negativity, it does not speak very highly about immigrants who are trying to...

Totally agree with this. Nobody knows what the landscape would be in months to come. While situation seems to be improving in Canada, other countries are seeing spikes, so globally it is hard to predict.. If IRCC starts issuing travel authorization, that will help reducing no. of web forms they...

While this would be good for outlanders, it defies the purpose of express entry, that is to contribute to Canadian economy and replace the aging population. 'Soft landing' and 'travel for landing' is not the norm, it is just convenience and exploitation of 2/5 years rule. When COPR is issued...

Hello, You need to download BSF186 and BSF186A forms.. Fill them out and make two copies each. Both 'goods to follow' and 'goods accompanying' use the same 2 forms.. There is a checkbox which differentiates them. So if you are importing goods while you land and also plan to import goods after...

I sent my passport to Ottawa on 10th. Received it back on 27th.
